• urban foraging

    Quoting Michael Loo to Ruth Haffly <=-

    foraging is possible even in urban environments.

    Of a different sort, one would think. (G)

    You'd be surprised. I have found lamb's quarters, sage,
    wormwood, edible mushrooms, and a fair number of other
    tasty things in city settings.

    Just in my own yard I can find wild strawberries, raspberries,
    gooseberries, low bush cranberries and red currants along with
    dandelions, mint, yarrow, rosehips and fireweed. A forager friend of
    mine identified 35 different edible or medicinal things on the
    grounds of the Legislative Assembly and the park beside city hall
    right downtown.
